Teleprompter Premium alternative for iPhone: 5 apps
The name Teleprompter Premium covers several apps. Here's which is which, and 5 iPhone alternatives compared on price, voice follow, accounts and auto cut.
Search for Teleprompter Premium and you land on several apps that look alike. The App Store has Teleprompter Premium from Martinho Medeiros and Teleprompter Premium+ from Roadtrip Technologies, which are unrelated. There’s also a family from Teleprompter Apps Ltd with names like Teleprompter and Teleprompter Pro. Before you look for an alternative, check which one you have.
The short version: if you’re unhappy with any of them, these 5 alternatives are worth a look. We make CutKit, which is one of them, so it sits second and we’ve said where it loses.
Sorting out the names
All facts here come from the App Store listings, checked on 29 Sep 2026.
Teleprompter Premium (Martinho Medeiros) is an iPhone app with a freemium subscription: $3.99 a month or $19.99 a year. It says everything is “processed locally”, mentions 4K, needs no account, and has 0 ratings. It was last updated on 8 Sep 2026.
Teleprompter Premium+ (Roadtrip Technologies) runs on iPhone, iPad and Mac. It lists $89.99 a year with a trial, $8.99 or $11.99 a month, and $3.99 a week. It says it follows your voice. Its listing mentions signing in. It has 27 ratings at 3.81.
Neither of those is the big Teleprompter Pro family, so don’t read that family’s reviews as reviews of these two.
Our criteria
We compared price and how it’s charged, whether voice follow is stated, whether an account is needed, recording quality, and whether the app cuts filler words or retakes. Prices are as of September 2026, and “not stated” means we couldn’t confirm it.
1. Teleprompter (Teleprompter Apps Ltd)
This is the one with the proof: 33,246 ratings at 4.82, on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. It’s freemium, with a Pro purchase listed at $59.99 and remote control by keyboard, pedal or controller. Its description makes no voice-follow claim. One reviewer on 2026-09-22 complained that mirroring text now needs a $60 annual plan, or $115 to buy it outright. Read the paywall before you rely on it on shoot day.
2. CutKit
CutKit follows your voice on the phone, with no account and nothing uploaded, records 4K, 10-bit HDR HEVC in the native camera format, and cuts retakes, false starts, filler words and long pauses. You review the cuts and tap to restore any. Pro is $9.99 a month, $59.99 a year or $149.99 lifetime, with a 7-day free trial first.
It loses on maturity: a TestFlight beta, no ratings, iPhone only, iOS 27 or later. The full best teleprompter apps for iPhone roundup puts it next to the others.
